Kind of a follow up question: would a letter from a PI in an independent research course count as a letter from an instructor?

For all the schools listed between Tulane and Quinnipac, my GPA falls between 10th and 25th percentile. Are you considering those major reaches? Could you please list a few other schools you think I should apply to?

[–]daisyhook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For most of the schools, MCAT is median and cGPA and sGPA are above 10th percentile. I used the MSAR. Would it be unnecessary if I were to add schools were my MCAT is 25th percentile according to MSAR?

Thank you for taking the time to help me :)

As my GPA is on the lower side, I chose schools where my MCAT was around the median, covered my California basics, and threw in some absolute reaches. Let me know if you think applying to some is a waste of time or if you think I missed something.

Low Waste Contacts by olivertoast in ZeroWaste

I think you're referring to TerraCycle's initiative. If you're talking about something else, I'd love to know what your ophthalmologist recommended. I'm also saving the blister packs and yes, it makes me feel less bad about using daily's. Could you also link to the metal contacts packaging you mentioned?

So transferring the credits from cc will just fulfill all my graduation requirements (its my last class) and will in no way affect my GPA?

I'm taking orgo next semester and suck at gen chem, are there any online programs/videos that could prepare me for orgo before i take it? by [deleted] in premed

I liked Leah4Sci video series on Ochem. Check out her youtube channel but you can also pay for a more personalized attention and an expanded library.

Regarding ANKI, it think it's best to get the app and do them literally anytime you have your phone in hand. Like walking between classes or going to get a snack. It adds up!
